What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Chevrolet Camaro?

At 58.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has performance upgrades or track-oriented equipment. Focus on signs of prior body damage, tire wear, brake wear, and any evidence that the car was driven hard. Because this model can attract enthusiastic owners, condition matters as much as mileage.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base setup leaves out some of the more desirable driver-assistance and convenience features, while higher-spec versions add more performance-focused equipment and a more upscale feel.
• Powertrain: The Camaro offers a turbocharged 4-cylinder in lower trims and a 6.2-liter V8 in the SS, with the V8 delivering 455 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque.
• Safety package: Teen Driver is standard, and the car also includes a reversing camera. Available features include blind-spot warning with lane-change assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking-assist sensors.
• Infotainment: The MyLink system uses an 8-inch touchscreen, and it includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also supports OnStar services and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.
• Fuel efficiency: The SS 1LE test vehicle averaged 16.5 mpg, while the EPA combined estimate is 19 mpg. The lighter 1LE-equipped 4-cylinder version is expected to return 20 mpg combined.

Which 2017 Chevrolet Camaro trim should I buy?

The 2017 Chevrolet Camaro is offered in 2 trim levels: LS, SS.

Here's the short version:

• Base trim: The LS is the entry point, so you give up some of the more performance-focused hardware and the richer feature content found higher up the range.
• Premium/top trim: The SS is the one to target if you want the strongest performance and the most compelling enthusiast experience.

The safety package note to keep in mind is that Teen Driver is standard, while blind-spot warning with lane-change assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking-assist sensors are available rather than standard.

Should I buy a 2017 Chevrolet Camaro or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2017 if:

• 28.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 58.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices are up 1.38% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.74/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The expert review highlights standout performance and track-ready capability.

Consider the 2016 if:

• At $23,116, the 2016 costs less than the current year's $24,587 average.
• The 2016 emphasizes a fresh redesign with improved refinement and handling.

The bottom line: If you want the stronger current-year market position and the enthusiast-focused performance story, the 2017 is the better target. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2016 is the smarter value play and still delivers the Camaro formula with a lower entry price.
